A Novel Accessible and Widespread Healthcare Service Model Based on Technology Innovation for Objective (Early) Diagnosis and Therapeutic Monitoring of Parkinson's Disease Promoting Continuity of Care

The SensMode System includes wearable devices for upper and lower limb motion analysis. The upper limb device, SensHand, consists of 3 sensorized elements: 2 sensorized rings to be placed at the level of the distal phalanx of the thumb and forefinger of the hand and 1 sensorized wristband to be placed at the level of the distal portion of the forearm near the wrist. Each element of SensHand allows the acquisition of inertial data with respect to the biomechanics of the arm-forearm-wrist and the first three fingers of the hand, measuring the 3 components in space of linear acceleration, angular velocity, and magnetic field. The lower limb device, SensFoot, is a device that integrates the same electronic components as the bracelet and is placed in a plastic housing shaped like a small rectangular parallelepiped that is placed over the shoe.
